100pips all ready, but still not closed waiting for further up trend.
this is because the PA and market sentiment like micho said.......

but what causing this PA and this sentiment??????

this is why : Japan Premier Hatoyama decide to resign, please see bloomberg for further news. the Yen is weaker, and the stock are stronger.
this movement still volatile, as long the politics trivia still happen....

hoping for more up trend....

USD/JPY get boost if current Japan Finance Minister Kan becomes next Prime Minister, following PM Hatoyama's resignation, given Kan's previous statements against JPY strength, says Satoshi Okagawa, senior FX trader at Sumitomo Mitsui Banking. Japan government spokesman says DPJ to decide when to hold election for party president; many observers tip Kan as strongest candidate. "If Kan should become prime minister, that could indeed provide some firmer support to dollar-yen," with pair likely "finding it more difficult to break the 90.00 mark," Okagawa says. If Kan becomes PM, market participants may become more sensitive to risk of verbal, actual intervention to curb any JPY strength, which hurts key export sector. After becoming finance minister in January, Kan said he wanted yen to become "a bit weaker," also took unusual step of referring to specific level, saying many Japanese firms hoped for USD/JPY around 95.

@micho: good for you to have a good money management, so you can still wait for this pair to go down and get a minimum loss, or even profit.
you also hold USD/CAD? long or short? i take long from 1.0489.

no need to make my own thread, i used to have one with my old system but in 2008 it stopped working... now i play on natural price movement.

if u dont have a good record then u should not play with live money, play with demo instead until u get profitable consistently. if u do, then u can start making money otherwise u have to stick to ur day job. remember 95% of traders are losers, here and everywhere
